A 4.5 million lambo as the bat mobile, crazy idea - how many are in production - who bought one... oh a Mr Bruce Wayne - there's ya bats!

I think, in a 'realistic' world, if that's the route it will go down, there is no reason at all Bruce cannot own a lambo, or car like that. But for Bats to use it, no good. If Batman gets compromised, he has to leave the car - anyone sees that, or traces it back.

It could be convenient if bruce leaves the car somewhere, for batman to use at a later stage, prehaps a chase of some sort. Batman can flee and guess what, with alfred reporting it stolen, the only prints they will find are bruce's.

Sadly, i don't think a batmobile works - i think he should have a series of custom bikes - far easier to work his way through a city, evade police and can be desposed of.

A sleeker Batmobile is the way to go, but the problem with those designs is that the boat-like length makes them very unmaneuverable. This isn't just a matter of dull pseudo-realism, as it would mean that chases could only really feature driving in straight lines.

I'd like to see this, but adapt it a bit to make it look a bit more athletic. (See below)

You're right, that was a big problem with the Burton/Schummacher Batmobiles, in spite of how sexy they looked. The Tumbler looked fantastic, but the way it moved is what made it particularly special. Something like the above pic, but play with the wheels so it can retain the jumping ability (which is great and makes so much sense for Batman while chasing or evading).

The problem was so evident that they had to depict the '89 bat-mobile using some sort of grappling hook just to make a sharp turn. I loved the way the tumbler moved especially in that big police chase.

It was the 1st time i saw a batmobile depicted on screen that i believed could actually move like that in the real world.
